Abstract
Starting in 2020, the Mardigian Library's Tech Systems team saw retirements which led to a combined 80-year loss of cataloging experience. These major losses of institutional knowledge forced us to revise how workflows were documented in order to anticipate future staffing changes. These revisions are discussed in this presentation.
